I have never tried it, but I don’t see why not since there is no rising agent in them. It should work the same way. I would just wrap them in a wrap or foil. If you try it please let me know how it worked for you.

I’m Czech and grew up there until I was 15. I can tell you that most Czech food is made with flour texture of Wondra (called “polohruba” or half coarse) and even one that is coarser “grubs” especially when making flour dumplings. Potato dumplings should be made with 1/4 mixture of Farina and the rest Wondra. Hope this helps. “Dobrou chuť!”

They sell Wondra in many stores even Walmart and Target have it. It is a blue thin container. You can ask somebody and I am sure they will be happy to help you find it. 😉 I even have some wondra in my amazon store. 😉 I wouldn’t recommend to use all purpose flour for the dumplings.

You can definitely use those. Either hruba or polohruba but they might be different weight. I think the Czech flours are little heavier than Wondra. I would try use less flour and add more later as needed. If you try please let me know. Would love to hear how it turns out. 🙂

Wondra flour is more course/grainy flour. Closer to salt consistency. Which is much better for any dumplings than all purpose flour. Here is my conversion chart to help you to convert it to grams. 🙂 http://www.czechcookbook.com/conversion-chart/ Wishing you the best of success.

I made these dumplings last year with Wondra Flour and they were amazing! Now Wal-Mart and Target in my area no longer sell the Wondra Flour. Do you have any other recommendations of another type of common store bought flour that can be used? 🙂

That is a bummer they don’t carry it anymore. In our area we have Winco where they carry it. Also Amazon has it. I have seen it in normal grocery stores as well. Good luck finding it. I wouldn’t try to make any dumplings with other flour than Wondra.

Spent some time in Prague this Fall and LIVED on Goulash and dumplings! I couldn’t wait to try and duplicate this dish. And then I came across your website. I made these potato dumplings today (with your Goulash!!!) and they were a hit! I’m from Canada and used Robin Hood Easy Blend Flour (same cylinder as Wondra). They were perfect! Thanks Krystina!!

I have used Robin Hood’s Blending flour….it worked but I have nothing to compare it with….my husband liked them and for me, that is what counts. Thank you Kristýna for being such a great teacher and helping me learn to prepare traditional for my Czech husband.

Mine came out not as dense as what my Czech grandma makes and she just uses plain flour also. Also, out of the water the outside seemed doughy and uncooked or under cooked?? Is that normal or product of the flour again? Once they cooled the outside seemed to stiffen and setup nicer.

Wondering if I need to some how pack them more if that’s even possible?

The dumplings taste great in my opinion but I want to perfect them so looking for more discussion, opinions.

Wonderful recipe! In place of Wondra flour I used 3/4 all purpose flour and 1/4 semolina flour. It worked out great. The dumplings were finished in 30 min. and tasted delicious along side the spinach sauce. Thanks for sharing, I enjoy your videos very much!

I was wondering if I could use my freeze dried mashed potato flakes instead of boiling potatoes and shredded them. They are more the texture of instant potatoes without the additives. I added the link to show you what I am talking about
My family is from Prague and my great aunt used to make these all the time with pork roast and sauerkraut. YUM! This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you! <3

Yes, that is difficult. 🙁 I am not expert in gluten free flours and am not sure which one would work the best. You might need to try to experiment maybe with smaller portion so there is not as much waster just in case it doesn’t come out well. Wishing you success!

Ahoj Krystyno, can you please let me know approximately the weight of the 5 medium potatoes? I just want to make sure to get the right proportion for the rest of the ingredients. Bramborove knedliky are my favorite food since I was little. Thank you so much!!! Your website is amazing and I love how you discovered ingredients for the Czech recipes that I struggled for a long time to find in USA like tvaroh and Wondra flour. With your recipes you make me feel home: for example with rohliky that we eat now almost every day. Great job and thank you!!!
